About this network

Echostar Studio Sp. z o.o. (ECHOSTARPL-AS) is a regional cable and fibre operator in Poznań, Poland. Despite the name, it has nothing to do with the US satellite company EchoStar. It is a local triple-play provider: internet, television and telephony.

What it's used for

• Residential broadband over the company's cable and FTTH network in Poznań and nearby towns, bundled with cable TV and voice.
• Business connections and the operator's own service hosting on the same address space.

Notable

• An eyeball access network, not a satellite or media business. Reverse DNS across the 213.156.96.0/19 range resolves to echostar.pl subscriber names such as NNN-NN.echostar.pl.
• Around 9,000 IPv4 addresses behind a single upstream, with no downstream networks: the profile of a city-scale access provider rather than a carrier.

Interesting

• The company started in 1989 building cable-television networks in Poznań and added internet access at the end of the 1990s, which is where the AS number and the 213.156 block come from.
